In July 2010, the MA Department of Public Health requested that the MHTF assume the responsibility of administering CHNA (Community Health Network Area) 11, extending our reach to Methuen, Andover, North Andover and Middleton, a testament to the exponential growth in membership and scoop of the MHTF, and its transformative work in the community.
